I have developed an awful mouth ulcer just in front of the top of my lower left teeth so it stings even when I open my mouth and my teeth brush past it. To say nothing of attempts to eat anything. This is not helping my mood. Might have to bust out the salt rinse and Kenalog. I need an "off" switch for tonight so I can just start again tomorrow morning...

Ouch. Vegemite helps ulcers if you have any, something about the b vitamins.

I just read this recently:

I wanted to give you some advice on the mouth sores...grab some liquid antacid and liquid benadryl. Mix it 50/50 and apply 3 times a day with a q-tip or cotton ball. Typically I will put some on anytime it starts to bother me again. The sores should go down in 24-36 hours.

If you have any good mouthwash that seemed to help me with mouth ulcers and healing it faster.

Salt rinse might be the way to go as well.
